don't kill me, those of you who read this.
So this weekend, Scott K. was in Columbus with his band from New York. He wanted to see me. He REALLY wanted to see me. He called me about 5 times on Saturday to try to work out my coming to see his band play in downtown Columbus. So I went. (Don't kill me!) I actually had a lot of fun. His band mates were really nice, if a little vulgar, and Scott was confusingly happy to see me. He kept doing stuff like telling me I smelled nice and sitting rather closer to me than necessary. Then, when I left, he gave me a hug and kissed me on the cheek. What the hell is going on? Here are my thoughts, and you can contradict me if you think I'm wrong. Though I'm certain I'm probably the best thing to ever happen to him in bed (I'm joking), I can't imagine anyone would go to this much trouble just for sex. Perhaps I'm wrong. He also was talking about coming to Columbus to see me when he's home (in Indianapolis) for Christmas. On the other hand, I can't imagine he really would want to date me (or whatever) after all this time. All I know is that he was well nigh desperate to see me, and was incredibly disappointed when he thought he couldn't. I refuse to get sucked back in, but I'm afraid I'm going to get sucked back in. I don't even understand what it is I like about him...Maybe it's the wanting what you can't have.

Any ideas, folks?

Only one good thing came out of knowing Scott the first time--I got over David in a big damn hurry.

Dude, Scott is one of those guys who has never had a problem getting the girl. You're probably the only person who's ever dumped him. Guys love that.

However, I don't want to say that this is the only reason he's smitten. It sure sounds like he's still madly in love with you. I would even aprove of you seeing where all this is going, provided you sign a "I will not get hurt if this was a terrible idea" waiver. After all, what's the point of life if you never take any risks.

Noone is going to kill you for going to the concert of an old friend.

thanks, Megan, I needed to hear that. Scott's motives are beyond a rational human being's ability to understand, but everything sure points to him still being madly in love with me. And I know he's planning on moving back out this way once he's done with his MFA in New York, so maybe he's thinking ahead. I've decided I'm not going to do a thing to encourage this. I won't discourage it, either, but he's going to have to do a damn lot of work if he wants me, considering what I've already been through with him. But, he's already emailed me to thank me for coming to the show. I'll reply--tomorrow.

In the meantime, I've got two different friends here who want to set me up with someone, and I think I'm going to let them.

thanks again.

No problem. Definately see other people... playing the field sounds like fun. I've never done it. I've always either had a boyfriend, or not. I've been on 2 dates ever... like the traditional kind where you don't really know the person and you meet for coffee and then decide this person is really creepy. Well, maybe that last part is just me.

But wait... you didn't say MFA before... dude, how can you resist an ARTIST! All that creative torment... tortured soul... how romantic!

*swoon*

the problem is that he's not an artist, he's a writer. I've ended up as a character in his writing before, and I'd rather not do it again. (Although, he's appeared in my poetry, too, so I guess I can't really complain). He's not really tortured, he's just anxious.

Oh a writer, nevermind. THEY'RE just alchoholics.

Hee hee ;-)
